What is the exact mathematical process to calculate time passed?
Q. For example if you wanted to know how long it would take you do somthing. Like its 10:45 and the activity takes 50 minutes. What mathematical process do you use to calculate what time the activity ends. Another example 1:50 and the activity takes 30 minutes. Please help, I am not stupid, I am just trying to make a C++ program which needs to know the exact mathematical process. Thankyou!

A. if time taken is in minutes add it to minutes if sum equals 60 add 1 to hours and make min as 00 if sum exceeds 60 subtract 60 from min and add 1 to hrs and if still min exceeds 60 repeat the above step if time is in hrs add to hrs

Math portfolio : How to construct a mathematical model ?
Q. I have to do a mathematical model of mean temperatures for some cities for a Math portfolio . But how is a mathematical model "modeled" ? I mean , is there a certain way of created a mathematical model ? Thanks .

A. In this sense I believe it is asking you to model the temperature in the form of an equation. for ex: y = 4.5 x + 48.95 y = the temperature of the city x = the time of day

What was the mathematical equation discovered by John Nash?
Q. Nobel prize winner... anyone know where I can find the equation or an example of the mathematical equation? Apparently it is still used today, but if that's true I'm having a bugger of a time finding it.
Asked by Jean O - Mon Apr 6 19:28:11 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I'm not sure what equation you are referring to; Nash made some contributions to the theory of parabolic partial differential equations, but he certainly did not discover them and his work in that area isn't particularly distinguished. Nash is primarily famous for his work on non-cooperative games (this won him a Nobel prize in economics) and for his discovery of some isometric embedding theorems in Riemannian geometry. His main contribution to game theory was to define certain configurations of strategies in non-cooperative games, called Nash equilibria, that are in a certain sense stable and to prove that Nash equilibria always exist. A configuration of strategies is called a Nash equilibrium if no player would change his or her… [cont.]

A. This is a problem in spherical trigonometry. I will spare you the gory details and give you the formula. Given: City A is at Latitude LatA, + north, - south Longitude LonA, + east, - west City B is at Latitude LatB, + north, - south Longitude LonB, + east, - west cos C = (sin LatA * sin LatB) + (cos LatA * cos LatB * cos (LonA - LonB)) Where C is the angle at the center of the Earth between the two cities. Convert C to radians by dividing C by 180 / pi. Convert radians to miles by multiplying by the radius of the Earth, 3959 miles (average).

A. It's hard to say what was really from Pythagoras himself and what came out of the Pythagoreans (the group of mathematicans he led) in general. But here are a couple of more: 1) The sum of the angles of a triangle is "equal to two right angles". (In other words,if you add up the three angles of a triangle you always get 180 degrees.) 2) The discover of irrational numbers (numbers that can't be written in the form of a/b, where a and b are whole numbers). 3) The 5 platonic solids. 4) He disovered a lot of relations between whole number ratios and things like music, architecture, etc. He showed that strings that were in simple whole number ratios produced pitches that were consonant with each other.

A. Hopefully this is what you are looking for... When you have a population of "items" and you want to find out the number of ways you can group these items, it is what is called an enumeration problem. Essentially, how many ways can you sample from the population. In enumeration, there are just 2 factors you take into consideration: replacement and ordering. There are 4 cases of grouping/sampling (enumeration). The major 3 that I am familiar with are as follows: Case 1) /w Replacement, /w Order Case 2) no Replacement, /w Order Case 3) no Replacement, no Order If you have a sample where R=number of items in a sample (in grouping) and N=number of items in the population...

A. From what I can tell, not all that much in total concentration. Editions are brought out from time to time, sometimes because of a new discovery or different view on a topic, but often it is to line the pockets of the author and the school, straight up. It is an economical thing. You will be hard pressed to keep up with using an older version because material is not in the same order.

Is there mathematical proof that when a cue ball hits an object ball at an angle the paths they follow are 90*
Q. basically i know that in snooker or billiards or pool when you hit the cue ball at a stationary object ball the paths they follow after collision are at right angles to each other. i was wondering if anybody knew any mathematical proof that shows that this is true. im just saying if there is no spin and both balls have perfect elasticity and there is little to no friction im saying that the natural angle providing the cue ball hits it at angle and not straight on is 90*. IT never happens because of various factors such as spin and friction but discounting these things and the cue balls paths will go off perpendicular to each other
Asked by neil - Thu Oct 11 16:29:40 2007 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Yes, there is such a proof, provided you make the following assumptions: 1. a perfectly elastic collision with no friction; 2. No "english"; 3. the two balls have the same mass; 4. Both balls actually move after the collision (an alternate solution is that the cue ball stops dead) Let's use capital leters for velocity vectors, and small letters for speed: V = initial velocity vector of cue ball; v = |V| V1 = final velocity vector of cue ball; v1 = |V1| V2 = final velocity vector of other ball; v2 = |V2| By conservation of momentum: Total momentum before = total momentum after: mV = mV1 + mV2 or (dividing by m): V = V1 + V2 Now, a general theorem about adding vectors says that: |A+B| = |A| + |B| + 2|A||B|cos , where is the angle… [cont.]
